Afghanistan has called on regional and international players to step up efforts to bring peace and stability to the war-torn country. 

First Vice President Amrullah Saleh says there would be no peace and stability in Afghanistan unless with close regional and international cooperation.

Addressing the second meeting of Afghanistan's National Reconciliation Council, Saleh said the war in Afghanistan is fueled by certain sides which benefit from war.

A sharp increase in violence has shocked the entire nation and even prompted the UN mission in Afghanistan to react.

Media workers, political activists and government employees have turned into the most frequent targets for assassination mainly over the past two months.

So far regional and international players such as Iran and Pakistan as well as the UN have pledged commitment to peace efforts in Afghanistan.
